If you work Uptown you’re probably aware of the fact that you can utilize a network of skywalks to travel four blocks from E. 5th Street to Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard without ever stepping foot outside. (You can get even further – to Three Wells Fargo Center and then to the Duke Energy Center – by using underground walkways, but we’ll just cover skywalks here.) If you’re new to the area or just visiting, it can be tough to figure out which buildings connect where, let alone what’s in each one along the way.
This map will show you where everything connects via skywalk. Click on a building marker for a list of what you’ll find inside.
The following is a detailed list (with links and photos) of what you’ll find inside each of the eight buildings connected by skywalks in Uptown Charlotte. I’ve indicated in [brackets] where you’ll find each skywalk.

I think it’s worth noting that I walked 7,953 steps (3.75 miles) gathering this information. So if the weather sucks but you need to get away from your desk, you can still cover some serious distance inside.
